Launch of portable eclipse is not possible in multi user environment (development server shared by many developers via remote desktop with private installation of eclipse for each user in home directory)

If I start via eclipse.exe in directory /app/eclipse providing the -vm option pointing to the correct java runtime all is fine, when starting via EclipsePortable.exe error "another instance of eclipse XXX is already running" prevents running eclipse.

Is there an option in the launcher ini or any other way to enable multiple launches?

Thanks for your efforts and the fantastic work you're doing!

Best regards
